Best of Botswana, Lodge Safari Overview

Safari across the Okavango Delta in Botswana, Chobe NP and Vic Falls

Whether you're a seasoned safari enthusiast or a first timer, this safari adventure holiday encompasses some of Africa’s most unique and diverse game reserves and national parks. Departing Johannesburg for Botswana our first stop is the Khama Rhino Sanctuary, which provides prime habitat for the dwindling rhino population. We then head to the wetland of the Okavango Delta and leave behind our vehicles to be gently poled along the water systems of the Okavango Delta in a traditional Mokoro (a dug-out canoe). We can get up close and personal with the flora and fauna before returning to our wilderness camp for a sundowner. Moving on from the delta we head to the Moremi Game Reserve, with it abundance of wildlife, we spend each day searching for the big five under the expert eye of our guide. Upon leaving Moremi the landscape changes again as we follow Baobab trees, dotted across the glimmering saltpans of Makgadikgadi. Heading for Chobe National Park, we hope to see the largest yet sensitive of all African animals, the elephant. Famed for its huge elephant population, Chobe is wonderful environment to view these amazing creatures. For our final stop, we cross into Zimbabwe, and see the incredible Victoria Falls, completing our African adventure. If you like this holiday and enjoying camping, then please refer to our Best of Botswana Camping Safari holiday. The difference between the two is mainly the accommodation, but also this itinerary goes to Makgadikgadi Pans and the camping itinerary goes to Savuti Game Reserve. If you would like further information on when to go to Southern Africa on safari and which trip suits you the best please refer to our detailed guide: Which safari is right for you?
